The board at Chelsea has not repeated its public or private backing for head coach Liam Rosenior this Wednesday, according to journalists at the club. The silence follows a run of five consecutive Premier League defeats during which the team failed to score. This sequence of results left the west London club in a difficult league position as the season concludes.
Rosenior took charge earlier this term but has struggled for consistency in recent weeks. Internal discussions regarding his future intensified after the latest loss, per reports from Sky Sports. While the club previously expressed confidence in the long-term project, that stance changed following the recent decline in form.
No official statement has been released regarding a change in management, but sources within the club suggest the head coach's tenure is now under review. Chelsea are next scheduled to play this weekend, with clarity on the managerial situation expected before the fixture. The club is yet to comment on specific names for a potential replacement, according to The Athletic.
